Thanks for your message. Sorry to hear about Monte. We didn't stay at Rabbit because there was someone in the only spot that afforded protection from the winds (were picking up) and enough swing room. Glad we didn't stay since the knats were bad going up the Rigolets. We stayed at Phil's in Oak Harbor. Had a great meal and left next day. Then stayed at Brady Is., though we wanted to stay at "the beach" at the entrance of the Tchefuncte, but the crowds on a Sat. afternoon are terrible. We deployed the dink next morning and explored the Brady Is. area. Good enough first trip out into the MS Sound, but we're looking forward to the next trip to savor the barrier islands. Guess we'll meet you sometime!

Hi Phil, thanks for the news and invite. We want to sail with ya'll from Slidell to at least Lulu's, maybe Pensacola. Depends on how the boat's doing, if Mike finishes up the improvements, and other stuff. Who's John & Martha? Since they're in our neck of the woods, we'd love to meet them. Give 'em my email, gnadas2@gmail.com, or they can comment here on SeaKnots...whatever. How's Monte? Is he going to be able to make it? Haven't seen his boat lately. Gina & Mike

I think I found some good enough reads on batts 101, to bring me up to snuff anyway. Thanks though.
